The Canary Murder Case
by S. S. Van Dine
“A locked door, a silenced starlet, and the most sophisticated mind in New York.”
When Broadway's most scandalous starlet is found dead in her fortified apartment, art connoisseur Philo Vance must apply his razor-sharp intellect to a crime that has baffled the NYPD. Enter a world of Jazz Age elegance and ruthless ambition where only a master of psychological deduction can unmask a killer hiding in plain sight.
